Well, I said to the doctor, "I don't want to go home

I think you ought to leave this drip alone."

Well, I've become accustomed to this level of attention

I have nurses I can talk to and thermometers to hold.

Though I feel just a little bit better

I could feel so much better

Can't you see?

Oh, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor

I've become accustomed to this level of affection

I have visions I can talk to and my nightmares to behold.

Though I feel just a little bit better

I could feel so much better

Can't you see.

That I have a good bed here?

I don't want to leave here

Just getting to know you

You don't want me to go

You don't want me to go.

Ah, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor

Doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor

I've become accustomed to this level of infection

There are catheters to cling to and my lifetime to unfold.

Ah, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah...
